Synopsis

In the past few years, baby boomers have been returning to church, inquiring about spirituality and look- ing for meaning in their lives.

As Christians, we have the truth they're searching for. But if we don't present it in a way that considers their needs and sensitivities, they won't stick around for long. We could lose this significant group forever.

That's why we must act now. Grab hold of The Baby Boomerang, and you'll find practical, appropriate ways to catch boomers as they return to church.


Doug Murren speaks passionately for our understanding of the boomer generation and asks the church to change-not in its doctrine, but in the way it does things-to reach baby boomers more effectively. If the people of God will listen to Doug, he can help them reach boomers for Christ.
Elmer L. Towns, dean, School of Religion, Liberty University

Doug Murren isn't sharing theories about ministry to boomers; he has been successful in reaching them. Here he exposes not oniy the thinking that enables him to attract boomers to the church, but also his keen insights into how they think, behave, and believe. The Baby Boomerang offers more than just hope; it offers a road map to the hearts and souls of missing generation.
